Inaugural Performance of Dance at the'Pearl of the Hudson', Mills MansionJuly, 14th 2018, 7pmSee what the Poughkeepsie Journal has to say about our performance this weekend!

"The Gilded Age will be celebrated this weekend through the legacy of a dance pioneer paired with an artful historic estate against the backdrop of the bucolic Hudson River. “Isadora Duncan & The Age of Abundance” will take to the grounds of the beaux arts Mills Mansion at the Staatsburgh State Historic Site on Saturday. The inaugural concert of dance will feature Jeanne Bresciani & The Isadora Duncan International Institute Dancers in a benefit concert for the historic site. Presented by the Friends of Mills Mansion, which is marking its 30th year, the event will also recognize the mansion’s 80th anniversary, when Gladys Mills Phipps inherited the property of her parents Ruth and Ogden Mills in 1938 and donated the house and 192 acres of the estate to New York state as a memorial to her parents...“That gorgeous site at the river has a natural life force and a cultural life force,” said Bresciani, artistic director of the company, “and she (Duncan) was a bridge in the 19th century for the wedding of nature and culture. Others could only wish for it. She embodied it.”Click here to read the whole article!

Inaugural Performance of Dance at the 'Pearl of the Hudson', Mills Mansion July, 14th 2018, 7pm

Much like the Pearl, symbolic in its growth and polishing, Mills Mansion, while ever in the process of returning to its former lustre, rises from the Hudson River’s shores not unlike a rebirth of Venus herself.

Celebrating their 30th year, the Friends of Mills Mansion will play host to the power and beauty of the Isadora Duncan oeuvre on the Hudson River in this Inaugural Dance Concert. As a prelude to the performance, there will be a champagne reception in the Beaux-Arts mansion hosted by the Friends of Mills Mansion to benefit educational programs and ongoing restoration efforts at the Staatsburgh State Historic Site. Dr. Bresciani will be in brief conversation illuminating the rich history of Duncan in the Hudson Valley and dipping into themes of the concert.

THIS JUST IN by Gia Kourlas from The New York Times:

"Duncan's choreography is deceptive: It seems like a barefoot breeze in chiffon, but is full of contrasts and intricate feats of coordination; passages of speed and stillness...In this 25-minute suite of solos - staged handsomely by Ms. Belilove and featuring the pianist Cameron Grant onstage - Ms. Mearns took on one of the biggest challenges of her career." - read the full article
